Namco Bandai announces Inversion for Xbox 360, PS3
- Thread starter Jim
- Start date
I'm going to create a game, guys.
The year is 2135, and the world is controlled by evil corporations. They genetically engineer soldiers to fight wars for profit, and the only way to survive is by becoming part of the great machine. And to make matters worse, this chaotic climate of violence has left the world vulnerable to a hostile alien invasion. You are Jason Steele, and you must lead a band of rebels to ultimate victory using only the ability to crush buildings with your mind. Join a friend on Xbox Live as you destroy this interactive sandbox world for no apparent reason. You can topple skyscrapers and use them as cover, or swing from them like Spider-man. The choice is yours.

The fear was that was going to be Kojima's next project after all his FPS hyping and Infinity Ward visits. But nope, back to Metal Gear he went :lol
The year is 2314, and the world has been over run by a virus that has become sentient. No one is sure whether this evolved naturally or was genetically engineering in a lab: whatever the initial cause, those infected become hosts. Most dangerous of all -- how can one tell who is who? How do we know who is still on our side?
Amongst the rubble and amidst this chaos, one man (and his three friends who are also a squad) must defend the company he works for -- which is still researching cures for this disease -- at any cost.

But hey don't rip on heroes with no faces. Two of my most beloved of all time, Simon Belmont and the Contra dudes, have no faces!

Oh I get the name now. Its just like inFamous, so you pronounce it as inVersion, as it is Namco's Version of everything that is currently 'in'.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Looks like someone shopped Chris Redfield over Gears of War and Bionic Commando from that last shot.

Yeah, I liked it too, especially the multiplayer demo (I never played online again with the final game, oddly enough.) These screenshots are nasty, but the team is not retarded, give it a chance unless videos look equally nasty.

The gravity mechanic could be interesting, but it needs a visual identity of its own. Or any identity at all.
The year is 2457, and the world is in a state of upheaval. An alien race known only as the Swarming Locust Flood has invaded earth, and toppled the governments of every industrialized nation. However, in the darker corners of Congolese Republic, resistance still stirs, and it is there where you -- and the remnants of a broken human race -- make your last stand. You've discovered a weapon that could shatter the invading horde: but it could break the remnants of the human race in the process.

He does? How realistic, I can relate to him. ;D
The year is 2293, and you are part of a human colonization mission in the Rosette Nebula. Upon landing on a seemingly habitable planet, you discover the remains of an ancient, long dead civilization with amazingly powerful technology. As the archaelogists begin to dig up more of these artifacts, humanity celebrates the discoveries that could catapult them forward in to the future. But soon, the events that brought about the destruction of this powerful civilization will reveal themselves, and humanity may find the danger they've unleashed may destroy human civilization in the process.

Ill check it out, as Namco usually at least has an interesting mechanic/idea in place. Their execution isnt always the best(outside of Tekken), but Ill see what they have here. Visuals are fine with me so long as it has a decent framerate, so Im good as long as the gameplay is.

You need to play Timeshift sometime.SecretBonusPoint said:Ha ha, its from the TimeShift people it seems.
I'd love to see game design documents from these games, where the games theyre aping have 20 page document detail, they get to just jot down bullet points like:
- set in Bionic Commando city
or
- main character looks like Master Chief/Haze character
:lol :lol
